PEORIA — A Peoria man told police he was robbed at gunpoint behind his house Monday morning.

The 48-year-old man was walking to his trash cans in the alley behind his house in the 3000 block of Southwest Jefferson Avenue when two men in hooded jackets approached him, according to police reports. Both pointed a handgun at him and demanded his money.

The man handed over his wallet, which contained $360, and the two men ran off.
